From Connie Ochse:
At the Fall Meeting in High Point, your branch was challenged to get your branch activities mentioned in your local media by the end of the fiscal year (June 30). How have you done so far? Let’s find out: Please bring your clippings or copies of clippings on a poster board suitable for mounting on our “Branches Media Success” wall.
Remember, attention in the media for your branch leads to recognition in your community and, ideally, to new members. Keep submitting those articles, pictures and letters to your local media!
